Bray Wyatt: podcast appearances and interviews

Windham Lawrence Rotunda, better known by his ring name Bray Wyatt, was an American professional wrestler who was prominent in WWE from 2009 to 2021 and again from 2022 until his death in 2023. He was part of a wrestling family, being a third-generation wrestler following his grandfather Blackjack Mulligan, his father Mike Rotunda, and his uncles Barry and Kendall Windham. His younger brother, Taylor Rotunda, also worked in WWE under the ring names Bo Dallas and Uncle Howdy. During his career, Rotunda held the FCW Florida Tag Team Championship twice with his brother while in WWE's developmental territory, Florida Championship Wrestling. He debuted on WWE's main roster as Husky Harris, a member of The Nexus, before being rebranded as Bray Wyatt in NXT. As Bray Wyatt, he portrayed the leader of a cult called The Wyatt Family and returned to the main roster in 2013 alongside Luke Harper and Erick Rowan. He achieved notable success, including winning the WWE Championship once, the WWE Universal Championship twice, the SmackDown Tag Team Championship once with Luke Harper and Randy Orton under the Freebird Rule, and the Raw Tag Team Championship once with Matt Hardy. After a hiatus from August 2018 to April 2019, he returned with a split personality gimmick involving a children's TV host and an evil clown known as The Fiend. Wyatt was released from WWE in July 2021 but returned at the October 2022 Extreme Rules event, where he claimed to be his true self while reincorporating previous personas. His last televised match was at the 2023 Royal Rumble, and he died of a heart attack in August 2023 at the age of 36.
